Why is there seemingly so little written about Tolkien and women?

Perhaps because Tolkien wrote so little about women. I always found Arwen stultifying. When my best friend and I were in junior high, we'd role-play LOTR, and we'd have screaming knock-down-drag-out fights about who got to be Eowyn.
